The point is, it helps in the begining to have someone with more experience to help you understand you are headed right or making a fool of yourself. Regarding the networking sites, comment on other sites and make yourself known. Post with frequency and go where your heart carries you. I have a business blog but have also commented on sports ans politics. My mentor and role model is Doug Karr, number 3000 something in the world. It has been fun watching his blog gain readers at a stunning rate. Doug, your support has been very important and with out your guidance I would have struggled.

Bloggers get worried when they don't get a lot of responses... but the truth is that 98% to 99% (literally... I've read some stats) of the people visiting your blog will never EVER leave a comment. So remember folks are reading and you're doing a great job! It's a marathon, not a sprint. That $0.02 is worth a million bucks, Tony!
